As you said dragonfly has several "goals" which have not been achieved
yet. It's a "work in progress". So, from a user/admin user side the
benefits will be more or less the same than freebsd. Of course there're
differences (the installer comes to mind) but what you "see" as a
user/admin is still pretty much the same (the internal mechanisms have
changed though). Others can probably cite some *real* differences :)
